  1. SKF fork seals are OK. A competent motorbike workshop guy should take about 4 hours.
  2. 5000 for fork seal is way over the top. 2,500 more like it. Rear brake pads about 500 Rear brake disc. 400 + Decent enough Chain 1,200
  3. Have you asked KTM head office for some support. Sounds like your being ripped off.
  4. Maung Kao Sukhothai is looking good and has been transformed quite a bit, no ugly electric cables, internet cables. Pavements and pretty lamp posts. Improvement's ongoing.
  5. Big C or Makro cook and good enough or me..
  6. Limited where I live so nah luv crusty bread food nice treat for twice a week.
  7. Foot long cheese in a buttered chunk of cut French bread stick to size does me with a beer.
  8. No a bit of rubbing down and cleaning up parts, replacing what needs to be replaced, new gaskets and seals no problem. It's all case of labour costs in a country like Thailand.
  9. Some just need to read and observe what they reply to.
  10. So your going with 48,000 I don't see a problem. A friend of mine a good few years back got his old engine re-coned by a local guy 38,000 and all was good. Later on sold the truck for more than he paid for it the jamy guy.
  11. Yeah I sort of get the feeling UK is good at supporting Ukraine with getting a lead in trying to get Europe and USA to give better more sophisticated weapons to which they seem reluctant to do. Looks like UK got Germany to up it's game and others starting with challenger tanks and now the long range missiles.
  12. Yes airfilters are something that you don't really notice because they clog slowly. When mine was changed notice the air-con was blowing much colder straight away.
  13. How are Storm Shadow missiles launched? Another point to note on the Storm Shadow is that it can only be air launched at the moment, from a Eurofighter Typhoon jet.4 days ago https://www.telegraph.co.uk › news Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine Very confused news as usual.
  14. Faults with a bad batch of units I guess. Kawasaki had a batch problem with potential valve failures. The Bandit 1200 I had in UK was one of favorite bikes, never missed beat.
  15. I'm sure what you want but I use the free Spotiify in Thailand.
  16. Better he bought from Kwackas the saving is not worth the risk. He would get a genuine iridium plug.
  17. Yes some rectifiers on OEM new bikes can be trouble and worth the replacement, on my old Blade when got her fired up after 6•5 years not running the rectifier voltage readings were not good. I sorced one compatible for my Blade from England who supplies all advanced aftermarket electronic part's to race teams and public as a whole. Got a starter relay from them to. Not cheap but superior to Honda OEM parts.
  18. Computer plug in will show a rectifier fault and other electronic faults if the Kwackas dealer are capable of doing the analysis properly and correct the faults if any. Been there done it got the T shirt with my Versys 650 I had.
  19. I don't thinks there is much wrong with his bike he should just ride it. What kilos it's done would help on condition of engine seatings etc. If he wants the engine split and checked out depending what they find its around 15,000baht in costs but he would get more or less a new engine.
  20. Well a leak down test probably would it's not a new engine is it.
  21. Both are just the same thing in reverse not that important unless your into a race machine. On the Z650 a quick compression test is good enough if that all the the Kwacka workshop can do.
  22. With the Kwackas plug it in to check ECU settings takes neally an hour and 200 baht.
